HENRY
I'm lying in my bed when Beryl comes back. I can hear her footsteps then the shower running. Initially, she has been silent. I check the clock and it's past midnight.
I'm still avoiding her.
I'm still mad at her. At least she should have given me a heads up so that I can be prepared.
Instead, she chose to keep quiet and let Mr. Wilson get away with everything.
I've suffered great losses so far. I thought we had a good relationship which wasn't forced and it was easy. I can't deny the fact that I still find her undeniably beautiful.
But it's all a facade. She's here for her family's business. Nothing more.
She doesn't even care.
I sigh and roll over.
I've been unable to sleep or eat properly since the whole thing happened.
I miss her...or at least who I thought she was.
I
